APR 19 2022 – MASKERS IN PANIC MODE AS AIRLINE MANDATE LIFTED
Federal Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle strikes down the CDC’s mask mandate for airplanes and public transportation. All of this as Black Lives Matter demands justice for the death of Patrick Lyoya. Meanwhile, the saga continues as Elon Musk threatens to cut board member salaries to $0 if he acquires Twitter, and Washington Post reporter and ‘regime propagandist,’ Taylor Lorenz is called out for harassing private user, @LibsofTikTok despite claiming to have ‘PTSD’ from online bullying. Her...
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily, powered by Turning Point USA. Today's April 19th, 2022.
And I know, Domine.
Today's top headlines, a federal judge has struck down the CDC's mask mandate, finally, for airplanes and public transportation.
Next, BLM protesters are back and demanding justice in Grand Rapids for the killing of Patrick Gugliela.
We're going to talk about that.
Third, the Elon Musk Twitter saga continues, and he might be getting partners in.
And finally...
The lovely Taylor Lorenz has PTSD, she claims, from online bullying, yet she is threatening to expose private citizens and the woman behind the libs of TikTok account.
All this and more ahead, Human Events Daily.
Masking has been a divisive issue in this country.
But COVID is a killer in red states and blue states alike.
So I encourage you all to wear a mask.
Encourage your family and friends to do the same.
It's one of the easiest things we can do that will make a huge difference in to save lives.
Wearing a mask is not a political statement.
It's a scientific imperative.
It's a point of patriotic pride.
So we can pull our country out of this god-awful spiral we're in.
And it's a testament to the values we were taught by our families and by our faiths.
Love thy neighbor.
Well, out of the hill, a federal judge in Florida on Monday struck down The CDC's mask mandate for travel on buses, planes, and trains in the United States.
You know, there actually wasn't a mandate for automobiles, yet you see people to this day, and I see them all around in Washington, D.C., in their automobiles by themselves wearing masks.
I'll see them out with their children.
You also see people out by the way sometimes where the parents aren't masked and the kids are.
I'd like to know exactly what the pathology is there that we're dealing with when you would not wear a mask yourself but you'd force your child to wear a mask.
And what are you telling those kids in order to get them to keep that mask on?
I don't want to think about that.
And I don't want to think about the fact that for two years, we've been forcing people to do this.
Well, an airplane is finally off.
There were viral videos going around all day yesterday talking about this.
People just cheering.
You know, obviously, right side of history.
You don't need...
Look, I'm fine with masks being optional, right?
So I used to live in China, right?
I talk about it all the time.
But I also spent a lot of time in Japan and South Korea with the Navy.
One thing that you do notice over there is they do have this idea of a mask culture for illness.
What does that mean, right?
Well, if you're feeling sick or if you're worried about, you know, colds going around, you can throw one on.
You can throw one on and there's no questions asked.
It's not a big deal.
I think that's fine.
I think it's totally fine that if somebody chooses to do that, then they're more than welcome to do so.
If you're in an enclosed space, if you're traveling, mass transit, look, I think airports are filthy to begin with.
I don't want to spend as much time in airports as I have to.
I want to spend as little time as possible in an airport.
They're filthy.
People are always in a bad mood.
They're disgusting.
And you get treated like cattle, and you just do.
I'm old enough to remember, What flying was like before 9-11, and it wasn't like this.
It was absolutely not like this.
Now, if you want that kind of service, you've got to fly private.
Because when you're going through TSA, when you're going through everything else, you're not treated like a person.
You're treated like a unit.
And the airlines, God forbid, they actually treat their customers like they're customers.
You don't have to be bumped off.
We've been bumped off a flight, by the way, with the baby.
Literally bumped off a flight when we had both of our children standing there with our baby, door shut in the face, right?
Airline travel in this country is abysmal.
It is awful.
It sucks.
Everything about it is terrible.
And we as Americans should demand better and we deserve better.
So finally, we're getting a little bit of pushback on this that after two years, after two years, and by the way, I know some of you are out there that were still putting your mask on in the airports, even though people were Weren't actually enforcing it in the airports.
I know you're out there, but you got to be careful too.
Because there are people out there that don't want to take the mask off.
They're worried that you're going to be trapped in a flying coffin, surrounded by these toxic plague spreaders, taking their masks off, smiling about it.
That's courtesy of G Prime.
How tip to him.
But understand, you need to be putting on endurance.
You need to be putting on speed.
You might have to run from five or six of these people at a time, especially if you shop at Whole Foods.
Avoid Whole Foods and Trader Joe's completely.
The judge in this case, Catherine Kimball Mizell.
No, they're going after her because she's only 35.
Only 35, they say.
Doesn't matter her resume, doesn't matter her experience, but here's a woman, a woman who's standing up and actually doing the right thing for our country.
Massive legal win, by the way, saying the CDC does not have and did not have the legal authority to put this mandate in place to begin with.
This is someone, Catherine Kimball-Mazell, the Honorable KKM. I hope to see you someday on the bench of the United States Supreme Court.

So the shooting death of Patrick Leoya.
Now, we've seen the videos on this.
And it is a harrowing video.
It's a terrible video.
When you watch this thing, it's crazy to me because the whole thing starts...
Now, you may have seen...
So Ben Crump, right?
He's this lawyer out there.
Civil rights lawyer.
He's basically the BLM lawyer.
He goes and defends everyone in these cases.
Gets massive, massive tens of millions of dollars in settlements from the cities in many of these cases.
Remember, he got the civil settlement for the George Floyd case even before the Chauvin trial had actually got underway.
The city had already made that settlement over in Minnesota.
And so you had a situation where the jury already knew that the city had settled prior to Chauvin actually being put on trial.
Chauvin is currently being held.
And also, not only that, not even given a public defender.
He's not even being given a public defender.
He's being denied that right now as he files for his appeal.
But to get into this case, Patrick Lioia.
It gets pulled over April 4th in the city of Grand Rapids, Michigan, over a ticket violation or a plate violation.
It's a license plate, has some issue with it.
There's a bad plate.
The cop says there's an issue with the registration.
They run it.
It doesn't match the car that he's driving.
The cop's trying to figure out what's going on.
Leoya gets out of the car while the cop is running the plate.
Yeah, don't do that.
That's problem number one.
Don't do that.
My father taught me, and I would highly encourage everyone out there, if you're watching this, if you've got kids, I'm going to teach this to my kids.
Ten and two.
All right, ten and two.
Keep your hands at ten and two.
And when the cop comes up, what do you say?
You say, yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
Yes, just yes him to death, right?
Yes him to death.
If there's an issue, you fight it in court.
You beat him in court.
Take their badge, whatever it is.
But you want to get out of that interaction as politely and quickly as possible.
So you keep your hands at 10 and 2 unless you're specifically asked to reach for something or go get something.
It's not what Patrick Leoya does.
He gets out of the car.
Cop asks him to go back in.
He doesn't.
Then he starts asking him questions about the car, about the license, about the registration.
He doesn't answer.
There may be some language barrier issues if you see the video.
And he starts to get to the point where he starts resisting.
He gets resistant to the officer.
The officer then moves to detain him.
He resists.
Moves to detain him.
Resists.
Moves to arrest.
Resists.
Becomes violent.
Scuffle ensues.
They go down on the ground.
The officer pulls out his taser.
The officer fires the taser.
Taser misses.
They often do.
Then, Leoya gets hold, both hands, on that taser and actually takes control of the taser from the officer.
Now, you may not know this about taser guns, but they have the ability to operate in dry stun mode.
So, yes, of course...
We all know they have the needles so that you can use that from a standoff position.
But if those miss, you can still hold the taser to someone's at contact, and it still works as a stun gun, right?
So at that point, he has become armed.
And I hear this in the media, and I saw Attorney Ben Crump saying this.
He was unarmed, unarmed, unarmed, unarmed.
Not true.
He was armed because he armed himself with the officer's taser.
Don't attack police officers, don't violently arrest, and then steal their taser guns because now the officer is trained to treat you as an active threat to life and limb.
That's the issue here.
That's 100% the issue.
And I get people can say, oh, well, why didn't you just let him run away?
Why didn't he just not stop?
Look, he could have done a lot of things, right?
He could have done a whole lot of things different.
But we live in the real world.
And what happened is this person stole the officer's weapon and then became armed with that weapon and had every intent in the world, obviously, to use it on that officer.
And that's the way a jury is going to look at it.
And so if charges are brought, and we haven't seen charges brought yet, but if they are, and the officer hasn't been named yet, though people do think they've just online that they've discovered his identity, here's how it's going to play out.
And I'm telling you, that's what the law says, and that's how it's going to play out.
Because that's the way the law is written.
We can't have a situation where this is going on.
Don't do that.
Don't play those games.
Ten and two, yes sir.
Ten and two, yes sir.
I get those issues.
I 100% get that, and I feel you.
I feel exactly what you're saying when it comes to that, but at the same time, you beat them in court.
But then when you see these riots and the protests of 2020, we have to remember that no one was ever prosecuted for these things.
No one was ever prosecuted.
None of the organizers, none of the instigators, none of the apparatus that caused the riots of 2020 was dismantled by any government anywhere in the country, not any of the states and certainly not the federal government.
Bill Barr talked big game about the JTTFs getting involved.
None of it ever came to fruition.
And that means they can be activated whenever the Instamob is needed again.
So I've been trying to get better about getting back in the gym.
I try to make sure that I go there.
We do at least three, four times a week.
Stay active, stay mobile, keep moving.
And I got to tell you that when I'm in there, I love having my Undertak on.
The only brand of men's boxers that has literally been battle tested by the special forces.
Undertek has to be the greatest boxers ever made because they cover all the bases.
And believe me, they're much better than the skivvies that I got issued when I was in the Navy.
This is high quality material that is antibacterial, anti-pilling and moisture wicking.
So I stay fresh and dry all day long.
They come with a sturdy yet comfortable extra-waist wideband, and the fly design actually makes sense.
Trust me, I know.
Undertak is durable, ultra-light, fade-resistant, and shrink-resistant.
Here is the best part.
They are almost 30% less than the competition.
So where do you go?
Go to GetUndertak.com.
That's GetUndertak.com today.
They are running a special offer this month.

Promo code POSO. And a good sign as to whether there is free speech is, is someone you don't like allowed to say something you don't like?
And if that is the case, then we have free speech.
And it's damn annoying when someone you don't like says something you don't like.
That is a sign of a healthy, functioning, free speech situation.
So that's Elon Musk as he continues this conversation and continues his effort to liberate the platform of Twitter.
Now, I got into it with Peter Navarro when we did War Room.
I think it was last Friday.
Navarro said, why bother?
Why not just let Twitter die on the vine, and why don't we just build up platforms like Getter and some of these other things, Rumbles out there, of course, as an alternative to YouTube.
Why not get involved with that?
Isn't Twitter just, you know, enemy territory?
Isn't it just enemy-controlled, you know, battle space?
And I said, look, any time that you can take territory and resources and institutions away from the other side, that's a victory.
Liberate the institutions.
This all started with the crazies not going to the ballot box, not even going to the courts in many cases, though it did end up that way.
It started with the infiltration systemically of the institutions in this country by people with a far-left revolutionary social reformist bent.
That's what started.
And so instead of people going into institutions that actually wanted to uphold society, you had people who wanted to destabilize society.
And Twitter is one of those institutions.
It became an institution.
Social media in general, the Silicon Valley tech giants, certainly are an institution here in the United States.
The same way Wall Street's an institution, the same way Hollywood's an institution, the same way that Washington DC is an institution.
Even if you don't think of it that way, that actually is how it operates.
Here in the real world.
You know, Disney World is an institution, right?
These are all institutions of our society.
And what Musk is saying there is that to allow for freedom of speech allows for a healthier institution, which in turn creates a healthier society.
If you don't like what somebody's saying, turn the channel.
That was the world that people like Elon Musk, Joe Rogan, Jack Dorsey, that's what they all grew up in.
So we're seeing something now of an uprising of Gen X, and I've talked about that here on the show before, and that's really what's happening.
Elon Musk really believes in that and he doesn't want to see a situation where you've got people sitting behind their computer screens deciding That it's up to them to determine who is allowed to say what.
What speech can be permitted?
What speech is promoted?
As opposed to simply letting the chips fall where they may and actually have something that we used to call the marketplace of ideas.
But of course, the powers that be are doing everything they can to stop Elon Musk from doing this.
So what's he doing?
From the Post Millennial, Elon Musk is speaking to investors who could partner with him on Twitter in this new bid.
So he's now reaching out to private equity firms, other investors, one of them named Silver Lake Partners, other investors, to be able to potentially build this up.
Egon Durbin is the co-CEO of Silver Lake, is a Twitter board member.
And it's also had previous dealings with Tesla and the SpaceX founder.
We also know that Jack Dorsey, if you've been following Jack Dorsey's Twitter account lately, he was flaming CNN. He was talking about dysfunctions of the board, problems with Twitter.
And look, I've always had a different read on Jack Dorsey than a lot of people.
I always felt like it was a, you know, kind of like a Frankenstein and his monster sort of situation, where it seemed to me that Dorsey wanted to create this technology to allow people to communicate.
And that's pretty much it, right?
An open source communications platform where people could share content.
The original idea for Twitter, by the way, all the way back in 2006, was that it was just going to be an open chat room.
That's it.
Just a massive open chat room that anyone could join.
And when you think about it, that's really what it is.
That's why the character limit made sense, because it was a chat room.
So Dorsey is realizing that this thing has gotten way far beyond anything that they talked about.
And the one thing that I said to Navarro was that at some point, Dorsey talked about this in 2019, Twitter could become a standard, an actual internet standard for communications rather than a platform.
What does that mean?
That means that all of these apps, Twitter, Truth Social, Getter, all the rest of them, you could actually sign up for whichever app you want and communicate to each other the same way that you can text somebody from an iPhone to an Android now.
Think about that.
I've had to remove every single social tie.
I had severe PTSD from this.
I contemplated suicide.
It got really bad.
You feel like any little piece of information that gets out on you will be used by the worst people on the internet to destroy your life.
And it's so isolating.
And terrifying.
It's horrifying.
I'm so sorry.
You're fine, you're fine.
It's overwhelming.
It's really hard.
Cry bully Taylor Lorenz.
What to say about Taylor Lorenz?
Attacking an anonymous account, lives of TikTok, who only does one thing, goes onto TikTok and posts material that people have openly posted to TikTok.
That's it.
That's literally it.
I've never seen her harass anyone.
I've never seen her call for anyone to be, you know, anything violent, right?
I've never heard anyone say, go to their house.
But that's not what Taylor Lorenz does.
Taylor Lorenz is not, right, she is not a journalist.
Or, in some cases, she is a journalist, depending on how you look at that word.
Personally, I consider the word journalist to be an insult.
Taylor Lorenz is a regime propagandist.
And in this case, she is participating in a harassment campaign that started a couple of days ago by Antifa.
So over the weekend...
Antifa accounts doxed libs of TikTok.
I heard about this over Easter weekend, and I said, that's horrible.
Is she okay?
Is everything going to be all right?
She's done some media interviews before, so we know a little bit about her.
In all my communications with her, I've never once asked her a name, never once asked her a personal business, because guess what?
I don't care.
I really don't care.
It's immaterial.
It's an account that aggregates stuff on TikTok.
But the regime can't have that because TikTok is the new Tumblr.
And the same way that you're hearing now people come out say, oh, you know, Tumblr made me trans.
Tumblr made me think that I had a mental disorder, right?
Well, TikTok is the new Tumblr.
And people are going on there and they're getting crazier and crazier and crazier by the minute.
And all Libs of TikTok did was post it.
Just post publicly available videos.
And so, of course, here comes the Washington Post and here comes Taylor Renz to dox, to harass, to show up at the houses of family members of the woman behind libs of TikTok and harass them on their own doorsteps.
When I tell you we have regime media in this country and that we are living under a regime, That controls the institutions.
Make no mistake, the Washington Post is an institution.
You got people who are upset about Elon Musk wanting to buy Twitter.
They say, oh, he's a billionaire.
Well, guess who owns the Washington Post?
It's Jeff Bezos.
Jeff Bezos, who's got connections with everybody in the world.
Jeff Bezos, who has a rival, you know, spaceship company to Elon Musk and all the rest of it.
No issues with that, of course, though.
No, no, no, no.
But I don't remember Elon Musk ever trying to attack.
You've got two sides here, two billionaires, Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk.
Elon Musk is trying, he says, to empower social media users.
Jeff Bezos...
And his propaganda as Taylor Lorenz, they're trying to punish social media users.
They're trying to create punitive damages against people who don't play on the right side of the aisle.
People who don't follow the orders and do what they're told.
People who become problems for the regime.
That's who Jeff Bezos is going against.
And that is all the time we have here.

What do we talk about today?
A federal judge striking down the CDC mask mandate for airplanes and public transportation.
God bless that judge.
We talked about the shooting of Patrick Leoya, and we got into the legal issues behind it.
Elon Musk, the Twitter saga continues.
And finally, Taylor Renz, the propagandist, trying to go after libs of TikTok and shut her down.
But before we go, it's time for today's History Break.
